Sleep in review

Had an over night stay at the sleep in. Was a cute little town with a nice charm. The hotel was very nice for the area and close to a lot of the white water rafting areas. The gentleman that checked us in was very nice and helpful.

Great vacation spot

Lindsay at the front desk was super friendly and helpful. Gave us suggestions of things to do. Beds were comfortable and a/c was nice and cold. The only problem we had was the internet service. Could barely connect. Other than that , definitely recommend. Loved Bryson City !

Design of bathroom with sink being outside is a terrible inconvenience. Even without a sink in the bathroom it was very small.
